Reseña del libro "Prophecies Revealing the Messiah: Genesis Through Numbers (en Inglés)"
This book belongs in the hands of every Christian. This is the first in a series covering over 160 of the prophecies in the Old Testament that Jesus fulfilled. The condition of the world at this time dictates the urgency of this message. When we hear Egypt and Syria in the news, we know something is happening. No one can deny God used these as important symbols throughout the Bible. The world knows time is short. Nature shows labor signs written about over 2000 years ago. We know these physical symbols point to the fulfillment of a much greater spiritual meaning. But this book does not discuss the spiritual fulfillment of those physical symbols. After reading this series of books, you will understand the dangers of guessing at any fulfillment of prophecy while God's plan is in the process of being fulfilled. This book explains how the door to God's throne has been opened by Jesus' sacrifice, providing direct access to every disciple to learn every detail of God's perfect plan in His perfect timing. This book shows how we must first learn to study and understand prophecies that have been fulfilled before we can hope to understand future prophecies. Dear brothers and sisters, when I was with you I couldn't talk to you as I would to spiritual people. I had to talk as though you belonged to this world or as though you were infants in the Christian life. I had to feed you with milk, not with solid food, because you weren't ready for anything stronger. And you still aren't ready, for you are still controlled by your sinful nature. You are jealous of one another and quarrel with each other. Doesn't that prove you are controlled by your sinful nature? Aren't you living like people of the world? (1 Corinthians 3:1-3 NLTse). First we have to learn to understand the prophecies Paul referred to as the message of unity. Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the church, apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God's people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ. This will continue until we all come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God's Son that we will be mature in the Lord, measuring up to the full and complete standard of Christ. Then we will no longer be immature like children. We won't be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth. Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love. (Ephesians 4:11-16 NLTse). It wasn't by mistake, the introduction to Paul's first book in the Bible explains exactly what the GOOD NEWS is. "God promised this Good News long ago through his prophets in the holy Scriptures. The Good News is about his Son, Jesus. In his earthly life he was born into King David's family line, and he was shown to be the Son of God when he was raised from the dead by the power of the Holy Spirit. He is Jesus Christ our Lord. Through Christ, God has given us the privilege and authority as apostles to tell Gentiles everywhere what God has done for them, so that they will believe and obey him, bringing glory to his name." (Romans 1:2-5 NLTse). The GOOD NEWS has always been about Jesus. Paul tells us exactly where to look to find out everything we need to teach the world about HIM, "through his prophets in the holy Scriptures."
